The Child in Health and Disease [antikvár]

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITIONWe are sponsoring this Second Edition for two reasons. First, medicine is moving so rapidly that print is scarcely dry before there is something new on a subject. Therefore, a complete revision is necessary. Second, because we felt that there were several subjects that should be included in the book which had not been included in the First Edition, such as: Chapters concerning adoption, medical supervision of summer camps, cardiovascular surgery and viral hepatitis as well as separate chapters regarding erythroblastosis fetahs and pancreatic fibrosis.We are duly grateful again to our secretaries and to the publishers for their hearty cooperation and we trust that our readers will be as kind to this edition as they were to the first.Clifford G.
